- Living with arm paralysis is definitely interesting and different. My arm paralysis greatly affects my daily life, but having a disability does not mean I cannot live a fulfilled, productive life.

Hey Sarah, I’ve been very into your videos, and I want to say you are an amazing person, I love how positive you are in your videos, you are so beautiful.
When you talked about all the little things your friends do to help you: I just want you to know that it is so good for them to experience this. They are learning at a fairly young age that disabled people are perfectly normal, and that doing things to help them is natural and doesn't have to be embarrassing. My daughter (about your age) is also disabled, and I've just recently been made aware by another mother how the kids in our church perceive her as being normal -- she's just herself. Good for you making these videos. The more we understand about the absolutely normal people inside the disability, the better for all of us. Bless you!
Yes! I completely agree and I’ve thought about that before. I think it really is great that they’re getting this experience a little earlier on in their lives so they’ll be better prepared when they encounter other disabled people at some point! Thank you! 💖
You’re such a sweetheart.
The world needs more people like you.
most definitely...
This girl has one working hand and does her make up better than most people on this earth!
Friends that help you with your daily habits are true friends.
Have you seen toothpaste dispensers? They work like wall-mounted soap dispensers...you just push the toothbrush against it and it deposits toothpaste, no fiddly cap involved.
Your so inspiring keep going and stay Strong!💯🤩
Sariyah thank you!!!!
I can really relate to the video. I do not have paralysis, but I do have a visual impairment and I totally agree that it’s not being able to do the little things that is the most frustrating, and so when you find a way to adapt something small for you to do it independently it feels so good. I wish you the best of luck in your independence journey andwith starting in college in the fall.
Yes!!! Exactly! Thank you so much!
Have you ever thought about getting a service dog?
I have a brachial plexus injury where I can’t bend my left elbow or move my left hand. I just want to reach out and say we’re all in this together! ❤️ your very strong and so wonderful to listen to. Thank you for the share!!
Aw thank you so much! I love hearing from people similar to me! 💞
💖 your are a such a strong person. Really enjoy listing to your story.
would love to see mom helping you.
you two are great.
everyone run adds to help Sarah
get things that help her.
she is so giving to us....🌹🌹
Sarah, I saw this video before and don't know why I didn't think of this before. Your uniform top, leave all but the top 2 buttons buttoned and then you can put it on like a t-shirt.
Can you do a video on your bathroom and what makes it so special from an ordinary bathroom?
Hi! I filmed one on my bathroom a bit ago! Here’s the link: ua-cam.com/video/-igmiWpUTCw/v-deo.html
I hope you like it and thank you for the request!! ❤️
I love your sweater
love that u r so positiv!
would be interessting to see all the things u talked about
Your a huge inspiration...-Love from FL❤️
Hi. Wishing you the best
I feel bad for you but you are doing very good. Love your channel
Your very inspiring
I don’t want people to feel bad for me. I want awareness! Thanks for your support :)
You're an amazing beautiful little woman may God bless you...
That is amazing . You’re so beautiful inside and out. Big thumb up!!! Make more videos 😍
Regina Dee aww thank you so much!!!
They should have had an aid/ para for you for those things at school. I’m so glad your friends are helping you, but they shouldn’t have to.
I had an aide originally. I wanted my friends to help, not an aide. I’m making a video about that soon :)
Especially when she goes to college.
...I’m perfectly capable of living on my own. Have been for 3 weeks now. I know my disability and what I can and cannot do better than anyone else. Thanks.
@@SarahToddHammer you are an inspiration...
i mean NO disrespect when asking this, but can you walk? if so does it make you more weak? thank you. you’re so strong hun!
Your arms will get stronger with time or it'll stay forever like this?
Love from india💜
I know this different from u.but I have spinal cord injury while my mom was pregnant n I walk n dip but it is not obvious.i have walking issue now n then
Can you share some old videos of you dancing ?
Your are so beautiful
What are you going to school for/which degree?
Probably psychology! I’m making some videos on that very soon!!!
You mentioned personal care do you have difficulty like with using a toilet and personal hygiene? You don't have to go into specific so yes or no is fine.
I have hemiplegia and everything in the bathroom is done independently. I use my teeth or my other arm (as a brace) but I had carpal tunnel because my working arm is used 2x. I tie my shoes by using my teeth.
Can u walk
how do you have arm paralysis if you can move your own ? 🤔
EllieVlogs it’s partial arm paralysis. She can only move one hand and can’t lift arms above shoulders
EllieVlogs if you watched the video it should be obvious. I clearly explained my paralysis. Paralysis doesn’t always mean you can’t move the limb at all.
